Chapter 63: Overage Rice Field Manager
Chapter 63 63. Overage Rice Field Steward
After eating such a meal, Zhang Yanping could no longer move his buttocks.
However, it is impossible to work hard, so don’t suffer like this in this life. He decided to stay firmly rooted on the stool, even if his aunt disliked it.
Song Sancheng, who is currently at the bottom of the food chain, did not dare to say anything after eating, but actively and diligently cleared away the dishes.
And ever since Wu Lan knew that tea could be sold for ten thousand and one kilograms, he threw away his rice bowl and went straight up the mountain with the basket! More positive than anyone else.
What's the use of being angry with a man? Making money is the most important thing!
Song Tan announced:
"Brother Yan Ping, you and Qiao Qiao can dig a vegetable garden together this afternoon!"
When digging a vegetable plot, the soil needs to be turned over first and then broken up. Although the place is not big, it is still a meticulous job. This was the first time Qiao Qiao took on such a serious task, and she took it very seriously.
Originally, the vegetable garden at home had been dug last night, but the grandparents said that they would not be short of vegetables after planting the land anyway, so they might as well free up another adjacent vegetable plot for Song Tan.
That piece hasn't been dug yet.
Just enough for Zhang Yanping to adapt.
Song Tan went to take a look at the cabbage seeds that were soaked at noon, and secretly added some spiritual energy to them. Now, after half a day, slight buds have begun to bulge.
She planned to plant them all this evening.
The vegetable garden is not big, and the total area is only about three-thirds, almost two hundred square meters.
But if you grow cabbage, a vegetable that can yield four thousand kilograms per mu if sown casually, the normal yield of this piece of land can be one thousand two hundred kilograms.
If there is another spiritual energy bonus...
Song Tan mentally calculated his score and couldn't wait any longer.
She had a good idea, but Zhang Yanping didn't lift his butt:
"I'm not going." He was obviously very insistent.
"If you don't go, you won't have anything to eat tonight."
"Then I won't go either." Zhang Yanping chuckled: "Tantan, you are still young and don't know the persistence of adults. My aunt will never starve me."
Song Tan also smiled meaningfully: "Brother Yan Ping, I won't starve you, but that doesn't mean you can eat like this until noon. If you are willing to eat something different from us, then you can show it off here. "
Zhang Yanping's heart skipped a beat.
But how can a grown man just admit defeat like this?
He said stubbornly: "Impossible, you are so busy, how can you still have time to cook two meals?"
Song Tan smiled and said nothing.
But before that, a piece of the field must be plowed. Rice needs to be intensively bred first and then transplanted.
There are also some vegetable seedlings that need to be cultivated.
Song Tan brought the tools to Qiao Qiao: "Be good, dig your grandparents' vegetable garden carefully. Once it's done, we'll plant vegetables in the evening."
"Don't you want to grow corn?"
Qiao Qiao obviously doesn't like Song Tan's way of growing vegetables.
"It's planted, but it's not the time yet. When the time comes, set aside a separate field to grow corn for our Qiaoqiao, okay?"
Only then did Qiao Qiao feel satisfied.
Zhang Yanping couldn't help but shake his head when he looked at his innocent look.
Song Tan walked to the field and looked at the old cow lying leisurely in the field with a few birds standing on it. He couldn't help but smile:
"Grandpa Li!"
"Hey!" A man sat up on the field ridge, who was the owner of the old scalper.
"Grandpa Li, is the milkvetch in my field delicious?"
Wrinkles appeared on Old Man Li's face: "Okay! It's very good. It's more delicious than stewed meat. I have to cut a basket every day."
Song Tan took the initiative to bring this up.
Old Man Li had suffered hardships in his youth and was not picky about what he ate. Although these two fields were eaten by cows, he found some corners that were still crisp and tender.
I just tasted it once. I have to bring a basket here every day when grazing cattle. It tastes good in my mouth and I feel like I have hope for the future.
Looking at Song Tan now, I just feel that this girl is good everywhere. As expected of a college student, he is better at farming than them.
"Tan Tan, what brings you here?"
Song Tan pointed out two pieces of land adjacent to the paddy fields and dry fields:
"Grandpa Li, it's time to cultivate rice seeds these days. Please plow them over the next two days and make them more detailed."
"I'm going to raise some vegetable seedlings on the dry land above, but I have to be more careful."
Old man Li has been doing plowing for half his life. He just agreed without thinking:
"Don't worry, I know what you want, and I will definitely get it done for you."
Then he pointed to the corner of the field:
"That piece is leeward, the sun is good, and it's next to the ditch. I just need to turn that piece up and down to make it thinner."
Looking at the bright sun again, the old man naturally has a lot of experience to share:
"Tell your dad to take the time to make more straw curtains. The weather is like this, morning and night, and you have to keep it covered."
"I think the chestnuts on the mountain will bloom in a while, right? Don't just ignore the chestnuts. The black fungus underneath should be able to breathe."
The workload has increased again - Song Tan's scalp is really numb.
If this place was deserted, she could still use some tricks, but now there are so many people in the village, and the fields and mountains are under their noses, so everything can only happen slowly.
However, looking at Old Man Li's unfinished expression, Song Tan's heart moved and he suddenly asked:
"Grandpa Li, why don't you help me take care of the seedlings first? I'll take care of the two paddy fields for you later."
"I won't say anything about whether to pay or not. Anyway, I'll cover all the rice, flour, oil, vegetables, and meat for you for a year. Do you think that's okay?"
Old people are also very wise. Old man Li smiled and said:
"If you don't mind my old age and inability to work, you can buy me 20 kilograms of pork from your family by the end of the year!"
Song Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"An old man in the family is like a treasure. Grandpa Li, you are much more capable than us young people."
Don't look at the old men in the village who seem to be in poor spirits every day and walk with a limp. Let them go to the fields, they work more skillfully than anyone else.
That pair of ruthless iron hands, just talking about pulling grass, can beat many young and strong men.
Apart from anything else, old man Li is still very experienced in growing rice. After all, he has been growing this for the first half of his life. Now he speaks confidently:
"Don't worry, I promise to raise it well for you."
Now that he has responsibilities, he is willing to say more: "By the way, Tan Tan, take some time to clean up the pond above you. There are too many aquatic plants in it. Raise more grass carp."
Grass carp eats grass fiercely and is suitable for such an environment.
"I think the water quality in the pond is good. You can take some time to put some crucian carp fry in it and raise them well. It will also bring in income."
Song Tan also had this plan.
"Grandpa Li, I plan to release the fish fry after the water is released to the rice field. Otherwise, they will all flow into the field along the canal."
It's not that she doesn't want to raise fish in the rice field, but she is mainly thinking about the group of ducks on the mountain. They can also enter the field to eat grass, and they can create a time difference later.
However, Old Man Li said:
"What's there to be afraid of! Fish in the rice field are more beneficial than ducks. They can also eat insects and grass to fertilize the field. The TV says that the rice flower fish can be sold at a higher price."
"At most, you can put more fish fry in the rice field. I will watch it for you."
